ABBYY FlexiCapture 12: Installation Types

Business environments are changing at an incredible speed and enterprises should always be ready to leverage new market opportunities. The scalability of the system may become a stumbling block when there is a need for the business to expand.

Also it is often necessary to try the new software at one location or within one department before deploying a large-scale distributed capture installation. This allows companies and organizations to evaluate the performance and cost effectiveness of the software together with the efforts required for its implementation and maintenance.

ABBYY FlexiCapture software is a highly scalable and flexible system that can be easily expanded to satisfy new business requirements. Offering standalone and distributed capture installations in one product and providing full compatibility between them, ABBYY FlexiCapture makes it possible to start with standalone installation and smoothly migrate to a full-scale distributed system.

FlexiCapture 12 Standalone

For small-sized to medium-sized businesses or departmental tasks where processing volume is not significant and software is going to be used in one location, standalone installation is sufficient. Installation is easy and provides the entire range of data capture capabilities from document import to data export—all executed on a single machine.

All the project settings specified for ABBYY FlexiCapture Standalone will be valid within a Distributed environment. This minimizes the downtime during the transition period and significantly reduces time and resources required for adaptation of the new system.
